Tim - Privacy and autonomy taxes - it is worth the resources for the organization to have these things? But tax is negative. I like insurance or protection better. What is our portability worth to us?
Recommendations - what is missing and what do we do with them.
Tim - some of the recommendations seem more like observations and not recommendations.
David - these are basically rough notes at this point. But we don't need to limit the recommendations to what's in the current notes.
How we frame Fedora (based on community, use of LOD, and if you use cloud storage) is useful, offering a pilot or service,
Sayeed - getting a grant for a pilot at LYRASIS would make sense. I'm not speaking as a bod member of IMLS but as an org
Tim - could we have Fedora and general recommendations. YES
The audience is broad.
Scott - part of this is marketing and addressing the things that people are concerned about.
David - make sure Fedora 6 is solving a problem, communicate that problem and how it solves it (for different constituents) and get people onto the new platform an communicate the outcomes.
The Fedora product position should be reviewed in light of the discussions in this project. We could add something about protecting and isolating from vendor lock-in (from cloud storage)
Tim - Awe to grind = I would like to recommend an explicit scale/performance test for Fedora 6.0 before its release. I would like to see that written down somewhere.
David - it's part of the development plan for Fedora 6.0. There are Czech institutions that have hardware and they can test it for us. They haven't been able to ingest because it's too slow.
Erin - should we pay to have these tests done? Could we get this grant-funded?
Erin - recommend a second grant project.
